44 Splendid Albums Released 1977

....so far my favourites from that year

which may reflect how often I've put them on,

waiting for 33 more never really heard...

 

Since I don't have a great taste for pure punk

you will see much mainstream on the one hand

and alot progressive rock on the other hand.
